CRAFT – Community Resilience through Action for Future Transitions

Because our future is in our hands

Letters to My Brother:The Art of Practical New Zealand Environmentalism.

Issue 5: February 2014

This Craft is personal. Letters to My Brother refers to me. Yet it is, along with its familial handle, Catherine Smith's very well-informed, road tested, experienced and committed account of practical hope. Hope here is conjured in the New Zealand and Antarctic environment, settler and Maori communities, in governments and in pressure on them, in families and churches. This is an artistic, hopeful and thoughtful reflection on a life-time's practical engagement by Catherine. It is local but much more.
